The hydrogen bonds break as water approaches the boiling point and starts turning into water vapor.

(Hydrogen bonding is another term for the dipole-dipole attractions between H2O molecules.) A Hydrogen bond is between a H atom in one molecule and either a O, N, or F atom in another.

What covalent bonds in sulfamic acid and water must have been broken to form this anion?

The covalent bond between the hydrogen atom and the oxygen atom in sulfamic acid must have been broken to form its anion. In water, the covalent bonds between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms must also have been broken to form the hydronium ion.

How does adding salt to water affect the way water changes temperature how does it affect the freezing point?

A salt dissolved in water creates ion-dipole intermolecular bonds which interfere both with the formation of crystal lattices (which must happen for the water to freeze) and the breakdown of intermolecular bonds (which must happen for the water to vaporize). Adding salt to water will lower the freezing point of the water - this is why putting salt on snow-covered roads breaks up the snow and ice.

In order to get liquid water to become water to become water vapor what must be energy?

Energy must be added to liquid water so that it reaches the boiling point, at which point the water will vaporize into water vapor.


Why does a change in state from a liquid to gas require energy?

The liquid is held together by inter particular bonds. In water these are hydrogen bonds between the individual molecules of water. If these bonds did not exist then the water would not be a liquid it would always be a gas. All solids and liquids must have bonds between the particles. To change a liquid into a gas these bonds need to be broken. This is called the latent heat of vaporisation.
